After a decade with no contact, the narrator of this novel bumps into her Aunt Lidia in a Madrid café. The chance meeting triggers a flood of memories of the two years the protagonist lived with her as a child. In addition to being a coming-of-age story, Attack of the Goats is also an irresistible family chronicle. With its fluid narrative, alternating between childhood memories and the hilarious adventures of a mischievous goat, it gradually reveals a series of tragicomic family secrets that offer insights into the narrator’s peculiar upbringing. Like a magician turned writer to better cast her spells through books, Laura Chivite marshals her indisputable talent and singular sense of humor to explore the passage of time, with all its sorrows and disappointments, cultivating an exquisite wisdom with every page.
